Default Okay
Okay this is obviously identical to a Gemini Jet. Can anyone shed any light on who Phoenix is and if they are owned by Gemini Jets? And if so, why not just label them Gemini Jets.

Finally!!! One of the better DC8s. This will be my first Phoenix.
Why all this interest in who is behind Phoenix? I don't really care, not for Phoenix, not for any of the other manufacturers.

I will get this ASA DC-8, overall appearance is not bad. I would have prefered an ASA DC-8-63 though. I hope Aeroclassics is going to make it some time.

I Thought Most Poeple Would Have At Least This By Now.
Owned By The Mysterious "Phoenix Lady" The Models Come Out Of The GJ Factory.
At First, They Used Exclusivey Former Tucrappo Moulds, But Now Use Predominantly GJ Moulds.
You Can Bet That's A Re-Tooled GJ DC-8 Without A Tail Seam.
